Abuela, Auntie Bernie and Nana

It was a real treat to have my mom, sister and niece in town this last weekend. They live in Vallejo and rarely get a chance to come visit us in Monterey, but things worked out for them to stay 3 days. I got to show them where I work on Saturday and then on Sunday they came to 3rd service... WOO-HOO! It was the first time my mom has ever seen what Missy and I do. She was "overwhelmed" by it all.

Lanaya and Angelo really enjoy hanging out with Abuela (Grandma), Auntie Bernie and Cousin Nana (Ariana). And, as always, they got spoiled. Auntie Bernie is especially good at that. Lanaya scored a sweet looking hat and Angelo got a mini skateboard. The funny thing about it is that we told Angelo that he had to wait until he was 6 years old before he could have a skateboard. He prayed that he would get one before he turned 6 and sure enough, the Lord granted his request. I guess special exceptions apply when family comes to town :) ~Cisco.

Fall Family Festival 2007

We had a great time this Halloween at CCMB's Fall Family Festival. Lanaya dressed up as Snow White and Angelo was a Jedi (Qui Gon Jin to be exact). I just threw on my Giant's jersey and Giant's hat and was a baseball player. Missy took the kids around to the games and bounce houses while I ran around making sure the sound equipment was up and running. We also had James and the Professor performing in the sanctuary. All in all, it was a good time.
